I have some confusion. This ^^ is a photo from last week. Selena Gomez and Cara Delevingne attended Leonardo DiCaprio’s foundation launch/fundraiser event in St. Tropez. Cara and Selena were two of the few genuine celebrities there, from what we heard. But Leo brought some whales (big donors) to the fundraiser and his foundation ended up bringing in $25 million, and Leo made a speech about how the money will go towards conservation efforts, something to do with elephants or tigers. Animal protection, conservation, anti-poaching. So, obviously, a perfect time to wear a fur coat?

Cara Delevingne shocked guests at Leo DiCaprio’s environmental fund-raiser this past week when she took the stage in a fur coat.

“She got up there with Robin Thicke in what looked like a white rabbit fur,” says a spy.
“It was like, wait, this is an event for wildlife!”

Later, VIPs went to a house party that raged into the wee hours.

“Everyone really let their hair down,” said a guest. “There was a club inside the house. Toni Garrn was dancing. Leo took pictures and seemed to have a really good time.”

Here’s what’s confusing me. The header photo is from the red carpet for the fundraiser, and as you can see, Cara wore a white tuxedo and no fur jacket. But when Cara and Selena Gomez (her date for the evening) left their yacht just minutes beforehand, Cara WAS wearing the white fur jacket and a pair of white, baggy booty shorts. Did Cara change in the limo? Was the white fur jacket her preferred look and she just wore the white tuxedo for the red carpet and then changed back? Or did Page Six make a dumb mistake? Granted, it’s pretty obvious that Cara OWNS and wears a white fur coat (in the dead of July, no less), but did she wear said coat during the conservation event?

To be frank if It’s rabbit fur they are not endangered and while I would not wear it, it is not in the same class of heinous activity as wearing e.g. Snow leopard. More like carrying a leather bag or wearing leather shoes. Sense of proportion needed.

right?! It’s amazing how this things are. Leo hangs around in his eco-friendly prius car, fundraise for the sake of the environment and has that super yacht, or his private jet definetly not eco-friendly.

I sincerely hope so…I work with a yacht company and many of the vessels in our fleet can burn through 500L – 900L of fuel per hour, it’s ridiculous! Honestly, I’m amazed the Mediterranean isn’t already a pool of iridescent black sludge!

Pardon my ignorance on the matter, but if it is a rabbit fur garment what is the difference between it and the dozens of people at the same event with leather shoes, belts, purses, etc. Neither the rabbit nor cow are going extinct any time soon. Why the clutching of pearls harvested from those poor defenseless oysters?

Signing off on your leather point. And the biggest contradiction of all is that I’m sure many of these stars came in private planes to this so-called “conservation” event. I supposed they raised money but who really knows – sometimes celebrity fundraiser practices are shady as hell.

Ive been to an oyster farm in Vietnam and its pretty rank to say the least. The farmers grown them out in the bay, collect them up to artificially inseminate them (by hand) than replant them until they are fully grown. Pretty gross for something so expensive. Most of the money doesnt go back to the hard workers that farm them though, shamefully.

Probably the difference from leather is that the leather is disposed off after separating the meat and other organs that are going to be used. Cattle does not just provide leather.
Other animals, like alligators, are killed to use their skin in fashion. In my country some people eat the rabbit and dispose of the skin, but I do not think that happens with those rabbits used in fashion.

Leo had to change his focus to animal protection, from saving the environment, which is great since his entire lifestyle is about using gas guzzling machines to have fun. Maybe the yachts use solar power so he does not feel so guilty.

I think she did wear it inside as well, because Selena changed out of her dress into another one after a while so it’s possible there was some outfit changes happening once inside of the event.Although I don’t understand wearing different outfits to a charity event but what would I know about that :p
